More 9700 Information Showing In AT&T Internal Sales Systems!

We got confirmation from the pics Boy Genius posted about the 9700 showing up on AT&T's unreleased IMEI list--now, the 9700 is showing up in AT&T's retail sales systems as well. The above pic was sent into the CrackBerry tips email and clearly shows, when searched for--the 9700 does indeed make an appearance. You feel that folks? That's the feeling of a launch date coming.

Mostly because they are the worst cellular service out there based on customer service mainly and partly because they don't have the infrastructure to handle their customer base. And secondly, even though they "suck" they still get all the best phones.

So I'm on AT&T now with a 3GS (switched from a Bold). I only pay $30/month right now since I'm on a family plan. The problem is AT&T - the service is atrocious. Their 3G hardly ever works (NEVER when on a call).

Here's the question: Do I get an Onyx and stick with AT&T, or switch to Sprint and get a Hero/Tour/Pro? If I switch to Sprint hopefully the service will be better, BUT, I'll have to pay the full $70/month myself.

If AT&T's service is really bad, just buy the phone unlocked and put it on another GSM network like T-Mobile etc. This phone will be worth the cost to buy it and you can set your own terms with the provider...

from working at ATT for 2 years that screen just means the phones in testing as everyone knows already. without the price next to it, it could be months before it comes out. we all remember the bold and how long that took to release and that showed up in our system a little bit earlier last year.
